UnitedHealth Group Acts to Support Texans Affected by Tornadoes
UnitedHealth Group
UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) and its benefits and services businesses, UnitedHealthcare and Optum, are taking immediate action to help people living in the North Texas counties affected by the recent spate of deadly tornadoes.
This includes assisting health plan participants who may need to make alternate arrangements to ensure continuity of care; a free emotional-support line; and supporting the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund, which is helping people in the affected communities.
The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; provides nearly half of the nation’s blood; teaches lifesaving skills; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a charitable organization – not a government agency – and depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.
